How to Stop Spawn Peeks on Chalet

Defenders on Chalet lean on early sightlines — here is how to stop them. Chalet's wide exteriors and big ground-floor windows make it a spawn-peeker's playground — the community has graded 13 peeks here and a remarkable eight of them sit at A grade. There is no safe approach to this building without clearing angles first. We track 14 published angles, including 4 graded S or A (treat those as mandatory clears).

Safe approach & utility on Chalet

Against Chalet you cannot clear every window — there are too many. Instead, pick your approach lane, smoke or pre-aim the two or three angles that actually see it, and deny the rest by simply not being visible to them. Crossing open snow without a plan is how rounds end in five seconds. Use the ranked list below for the exact clips and grades.

Dangerous windows & doors (from the Chalet guide)

The first-floor window wall: Lounge, Trophy, Fireplace

High danger

Chalet's ground floor is the threat. Lounge window (41 votes), Trophy window (39) and the Fireplace window and door all grade at A — a row of fast angles covering the main approaches. The vote counts matter here: these aren't niche picks, they're proven angles the community keeps confirming round after round.

Upstairs: Balcony window and the second-floor set

Moderate

Balcony window leads the second floor at A grade, with Library, Bathroom and Astro windows in the B range behind it. The upper angles are slower to reach but harder to punish — a natural second option once attackers start pre-aiming the ground floor.

The pixel climb

Low priority

The 'Pixel beach chair ladder climb up' grades at A on only 7 votes — a niche, off-meta angle that works precisely because almost nobody expects a defender there. Angles like this get patched or popularized eventually; enjoy it while it's still a secret.
